Norelle Smith is an American author with a passion for helping those in need. After working in the corporate world for more than two decades she decided it was time to move on. Norelle retired early and sought out her next adventure. Somewhere along the way, lost among the trails with her horses, she discovered the direction she needed to continue evolving; writing.

Each book she writes, although they're fiction, they have pieces of her life in them. She'd like to tell her story through several books, with different characters and different situations. Norelle's hope is to help someone else…hoping to show others there's a way out, and a better way to live. She believes some things should be kept a secret, but not left untold.

Norelle is married with three daughters and two grandchildren, and her life revolves around them. Pets you’ll find on her property are horses, goats, dogs and cats. She’s still trying to talk her husband into getting a ‘pet’ cow.

  • Captivating

    "Captivating. I came across this book from one of those Little free library was captivated me was that it was signed by the author and given to the little free libraries or perhaps placed by the author herself. I was lucky enough to be there at the right time. Thank you for the giving us readers the opportunity to read such and exciting book. The story was so realistic that I was able to picture myself as I read each page. Was not able to put it down I felt as it was drug that had me yearning for more. Francesca's story of 1st love to heartbreak, drugs and falling to the bottom of the barrel was the best scenarios of what LOVE can do. Isaac's 360' turn from a sweet kid to an obsessive boyfriend was cynical. A must read!"

  • Such a GREAT story.

    "Such a GREAT story. The book was hard to put down once I started reading. Each page drew me further into the story of Viola and Connor! I am so glad the author wrote this story and a must read whether you have had similar experiences or not. Lots of twists and turns in the plot with a perfect and unexpected ending. People ARE put into our lives for a reason and the author did a beautiful job communicating that message."

  • The Power of Love

    "The power of love... Accepting Jesus in our lives heals and restores our souls but does not make us immune to the trials of this life. I loved how the authors brought to life the torment and agony from past choices either from themselves or from others. What I really enjoyed was the difference of how two siblings ran away from their life in two different ways. The hope of Christ healed one sibling and the reader is left to wonder what happened to the other sibling. Just as in life, not everything is wrapped up in a nice bow but with Jesus at the helm, we know everything will be all right."

  • An amazing story.

    "An amazing story. The cover caught my attention. I knew it was going to be a good book, and I was right. I love how the author shows the mysterious ways God works. We may not always see or understand the plans God has for our lives, we must always trust He knows what He’s doing. There were a lot of inspiring words in the story. Things people can relate to. I definitely recommend this book."

  • Beautiful story.

    "Beautiful story. This Can’t Be Goodbye is a coming of age story that showcases the many different stages of faith. Even though Nikki didn't know it, God always had a plan."

  • Cute story.

    "Cute story! I found this book to be so adorable. I know it's a children's book but I enjoyed every bit of it. Awesome job, Norelle!"

  • Chills throughout!

    "Chills throughout! Wow! I have not read many books where the words caused chills to travel up and down my spine! Authors Norelle Smith and S.P.W. Mitchell deliver a story that will follow you into your dreams. The style of writing made for an easy read. You are immediately drawn into the world and emotions of the characters. Love is a hard journey. Cia, Logan, and Javier will attest to that in Voices in the Dark as all three have emotions to sort out and decisions to make."
